Two more things: Leia naming her son Ben makes a LOT more sense now. Someone needs to redub that ending scene into the credits with the John Williams score. Like right now. The score was really the only thing I didn't like from the series. Just something about it just felt off.

Though I hated the score of The Batman and it really took me out of the movie, so I understand how that can feel.

I expected something more, though, and evidently I am not alone.

It wasn't bad at all, it was just missing something.

The score was really the only thing I didn't like from the series. Just something about it just felt off. I didn't even hate the score. It wasn't super iconic or memorable, but it did its job, and I think that aspect helped the more familiar themes have more impact at the end here. That being said, that ending, along with them using the old school credits, definitely deserved that classic fanfare. Also would have been a nice bookend with the show starting with "A long time ago..."

The score is fine but it's also not nearly as memorable as Mando's or Book of Boba Fett's. The main theme is really good though. Which, as it's a John Williams theme, makes sense.

Enjoyed Reva more the latest episode. I’m glad she was giving more depth to her character that so far consisted of grrrr I’m angry, rahhh give me a promotion. I am all but 15 minutes into the finale. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}How did she recover from being pretty much impaled? I wonder if the "rage is a great healer" line was a nod to that.

So he stabbed her in the right spot to stop her but cause no permanent damage.
Her rage did allow her to live but she went another way.

I didn't really notice the score at all, which is kinda disappointing for Star Wars. It never took me out or distracted me from any of the scenes, but I don't feel that it added to any. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Overall, I thought it was a good show. Most of the continuity breaking errors were wrapped up by the end and the show even helped to clarify a couple of ANH things (such as Obi-Wan calling him "Darth.") I liked the idea that Palpatine will subtly steer Vader away from finding Kenobi again because he recognises that Kenobi, of all people, is a threat to Vader because of the emotions he evokes.
I think the part that I enjoyed the most was the mental journey that Obi-Wan himself went on. The broken man we met in Episode 1 had been practically reborn by the end of Episode 6, despite the obvious anguish of finding out Anakin's fate and having to face him again. Obi-Wan seemed to have hope again at the end and I think it was brought on by discovering there were still people out there willing to fight against the Empire. Seeing Qui-Gon again was fun and the ending set up a second season without being bound to one. What does Obi-Wan do next now he has his life back? Keep him away from the wider Skywalker plot and I'd be interested in seeing that.

Her rage did allow her to live but she went another way. Also… {Spoiler}there was literally a bacta tank in The Path’s hide out where she was stabbed. She clearly wasn’t fully healed because Owen’s blows to the area she was stabbed in stunned her in pain a bit, so I think she just took a quick dip to heal enough to where she could move around.

{Spoiler}So the timeline of this episode is kinda bothering me. The way it was portrayed it felt like Darth Vader was only pursuing that transport ship for a couple hours at most, yet in that amount of time Reva managed to drag her ass up, spend enough time in a bacta tank to at least be functional, find a ship and get to Tatooine? That feels awfully tight.

Same thing as Empire.

Also, I need to find a custom wallpaper company so an entire wall of my house can be Obi Wan Force lifting the rocks.

Made me wonder whose hatred for Obi Wan is worse Mauls or Vaders Maul's, his hatred caused him to survive being cut in half and dragging himself out of that pit. His hatred consumed his life after that to the point he kept trying to get his revenge, and years later hunted down Obi-Wan. Vader hates Obi-Wan, but he hates himself above all.

Same thing as Empire. Also, interstellar travel times in Star Wars have always been incredibly inconsistent. Depending on the needs of the story hyperdrive will take you minutes, hours, days, or weeks to get to your destination, even if the distance travelled is comparable, while sublight engines will still somehow enable you to travel between systems in a day or two.
